Yep, they held my claim until the rates went up as well. It's a dirty little strategy that Choice and IHG use. I've actually had times when I make two claims within 10 mins. One gets confirmed in about a day and then I don't hear about the other one until ~3 days later - after the lower price on the other website has gone away.

My claim was approved within 10 mins of submitting. I did submit it about 5 times because there was a bug on the website and I though it didn't go through each time.
